Kerala at the Heart of the Cuisine

Nandanam ; Eclecticism and Indian Culinary Poetry

In Nandanam’s kitchens, Kerala takes centre stage and inspires most of the recipes. This region in south-west India stretches along the Malabar Coast. A land of spices, Kerala is famous for its rice dishes, dal, curries and slow-cooked vegetables.

The menu also highlights tuna, sea bream and red mullet, prepared in the spirit of Kerala. The chef elevates them in carefully crafted plates, between tradition, balance and creativity. These inspirations give rise to a refined cuisine designed for an elegant experience.
